Ingredients

6 large russet potatoes, peeled and diced

1 medium onion, chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

4 cups chicken broth

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

½ teaspoon smoked paprika

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Directions

Add the diced potatoes, chopped onion, and minced garlic to the slow cooker.

Pour in the chicken broth, then stir in the salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.

Cover and cook on LOW for 6–8 hours, until the potatoes are very tender.
